No, but Im guessing everyone died except Magic Johnson.

It's not much of a spoiler to say that the super heros were wiped out by weaponised gonorrhoea.

Worth watching, very funny

Breaking news: China will admit coronavirus coming from its P4 lab

"A reliable source told Miles Guo today that the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) will admit to the public of an “accidental” leak of lab-created virus from a P4 lab in Wuhan to put blames on “human errors”. But the official announcement is still being finalized.

Initially, the Chinese communist’s propaganda machines were blaming the virus on wild animals like bats by showing many videos of people eating bats.

In January 2018, a bio-safety level four (BSL-4) laboratory was built in the city of Wuhan, which focuses on the control of emerging diseases and stores purified SARS and other types of viruses. It is supposed to act as a WHO ‘reference laboratory’ linked to similar labs around the world."

This one is fake. Don't believe this shit. I ve seen it 1 week ago. Already discussed on reddit as well.

https://www.reddit.com/r/worldnews/comments/eulurp/china_will_admit_coronavirus_coming_from_its_p4/

It is not good to increase the panic level with that kind of fake news...

I realize this article is almost a week old and was taken by many as fake news at the time, but the new discoveries of HIV inserts in the coronavirus adds context to it.

Google Chatbot Meena

Meena is an end-to-end, neural conversational model that learns to respond sensibly to a given conversational context. The training objective is to minimize perplexity, the uncertainty of predicting the next token (in this case, the next word in a conversation). At its heart lies the Evolved Transformer seq2seq architecture, a Transformer architecture discovered by evolutionary neural architecture search to improve perplexity.

A chat between Meena (left) and a person (right).

Concretely, Meena has a single Evolved Transformer encoder block and 13 Evolved Transformer decoder blocks as illustrated below. The encoder is responsible for processing the conversation context to help Meena understand what has already been said in the conversation. The decoder then uses that information to formulate an actual response. Through tuning the hyper-parameters, we discovered that a more powerful decoder was the key to higher conversational quality.

Example of Meena encoding a 7-turn conversation context and generating a response, “The Next Generation”.

Nope, fucking scary actually.
But it seems not Trezors fault, the STM32 micro misbehaves when it is voltage "glitched".
Basically the device is useless as hardware wallet without replacement, except when the seed is protected by a BIP39 passphrase (which is what Kraken recommends as fix/cure).

^ Krakens blog article is really very detailed and well written. You need only a minimal electronic understanding to reproduce the attack. (<- Meaning the crims will be up to speed quickly).

wow, just wow. Hardware wallets only have one purpose, protect the private key. Is it really that hard to design a secure hardware? I wonder when they find a bug in ledger wallets which can not be fixed with a software update.

Human: Hi!
Meena: Hey there! What’s up?
Human: Same old, Monday blues...what are you up to?
Meena: I’m procrastinating on a paper I’m supposed to be writing.
Human: are you thinking of pulling an all nighter?
Meena: Possibly. What’s your paper on?
Human: Nah, i just do the grunge work around here...one day I wish to write a paper that will change the world!
Meena: What’s the topic?
Human: not sure, any suggestions?
Meena: Well what’s the assignment on?
Human: breathing under water
Meena: How to breathe underwater.
Human: that’s what i’m hoping to figure out!
Meena: I hope you figure it out! Because I can’t.
Human: i’m sure you can if you try you’re the best!
Meena: Thank you, but I’m pretty sure you’re the best.
Human: how was your weekend?
Meena: Pretty good. Yours?
Human: good, I practiced the violin
Meena: That’s awesome! How long have you been playing?
Human: just started learning last month
Meena: That’s awesome! What made you want to learn the violin?

indeed it sounds a bit like JJG.

Hardware wallets protect the private key so that it is never exposed to the computer as the signing is done in the device itself. That's their main purpose.

There will always be a way (even of costly) to extract the keys or dump the internal memory from any device you have physical access to.

That being said, if you add a password to derive the stored key the protection increases a lot as it is not stored in the device.

This would explain his tedious habit of dissecting everyone's quotes into small parts and then responding to each separate smaller part.

Also helps explains his tendency to show poor reading comprehension at times and argue against points that were never asserted. He can decode a single sentence, but context and nuance are difficult for him.

Fractal interesting ..

This Eerily Accurate Fractal Suggests Bitcoin Will Soon Explode to $12,000

Galaxy, another popular crypto analyst, spoke about this fractal in a recent tweet, noting that BTC could soon break the $10,000 barrier and move to $12,000 after a short period of trading sideways.

Today & May-June '19 similarities are interesting to watch.

By looking at this fractal, we are now in a consolidation before entering the next bull move & break the $10K barrier.

RSI also bounced in the exact same area as it did back then.

OK Boyz, good news. Trump has figured out that Aids-Flu is not good for his precious stock market so he is finally doing something!! Im not saying you are all gonna make it, but at the least this should buy you some more time.

https://www.cnbc.com/2020/01/31/white-house-to-hold-briefing-on-coronavirus-friday-afternoon.html

"The Trump administration on Friday declared the coronavirus a public health emergency in the United States, and announced that people who pose a risk of transmitting the disease will temporarily be suspended from entering the U.S.

Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar said that President Donald Trump signed an order for the U.S. to deny entry to foreign nationals who have traveled to China within the past two weeks, aside from the immediate family of U.S. citizens.

Azar, speaking to reporters at the White House, also said that any U.S. citizens who have been in China’s Hubei province — home of Wuhan, the epicenter of the virus — within the last 14 “will be subject to up to 14 days of mandatory quarantine to ensure they’re provided proper medical care and health screening.”"

There has been a fierce battle between Coronavirus and Porn for the title of the internets most googled word over the last 7 days. Coronavirus is winning right now but appears to have peaked and about to cede to King Porn.

The fate of humanity is at stake.

I'm as racist as the next guy about Chinese so-called literature; it's terrible. Complete and utter shit from 1500 BC to the present. Not a sausage.
Curiously though there is one solitary chipolata.
A half decent short story writer called Shen Congwen who iirc wrote nice lyrical tales of nothing much really; working the boats up and down the massive grey river from Wuhan into Chongqing and Sichuan, the porters and river-workers' dormitories and brothels, the pangs of being away from a home you never have. He caught the fun that can be had even in the dirty fogs and sweaty crowded cities. It's a spirited city, and Shen showed that to me at least in a nice restrained way.



edit: ok ok ok there's Li Bo and all that jazz. I might review later.
